thread 28 Threaded Spouts
Let’s see if I can actually make a thread. My last one, that I will revisit, was not done correctly. I’m not an IT expert… oh, wait… yes I am.

To set the stage… It was 1999, coastal SC, and my GF and I had just moved back to the area. Her parents were working comedy on a cruise ship in the Bahamas.

TFG said Iran would never have dared to retaliate against Israel for the killing of 2 generals.

I guess he’s forgetting that Iran retaliated against US bases in Iraq, and actually affected hundreds of American military members, after he ordered the killing of a general.

I’m a parent of two amazing kids.

The youngest is Trans.

I don’t understand a lot of things when it comes to that. I still screw up with the pronouns.

What I don’t screw up is in my love for him. That’s my child, my pride and joy, and I will always love and support him.

Ask me anything.

The LSU Women’s basketball team missed the National Anthem. The governor, who is a piece of crap, is upset?

I’m reminded of this…

I just read an article about a family of 6- wife, husband, and 4 children- that can’t afford olive oil and bread.

I’m all “boo-effing-hoo” and wondering why they chose to have 4 children when they can’t afford it?

Make it make sense?

The Justice system is broken.

If someone were to rape or murder one of my children, and be found guilty, I would not trust a judge or jury to enact a justified punishment.

I would want to do it myself. And it should be my right to do that.

I’m not religious, but if I were…

I’d be outraged at the “Bible for profit” scheme going around.

I just laugh at the suckers that are willing to shell out money for this. Money that would probably be better spent on birth control?

My kid texted me Saturday evening… he locked his keys in his car AGAIN. Luckily, I got him a spare recently, so I started the 25 minute drive. He texted that someone gave him string, and since his window was open, he would try to pull the lock. He did! This was the text later… I raised a good one.

Kyle Rittenhouse is going on a college speaking tour.

One of the stops?

Kent State University.

That’s the last place an indiscriminate shooter should go to speak.

Dems and RINOs cannot let fatigue happen in November.

We must turn up to vote, and vote wisely, in this next election.

Our nation depends on leaving no doubt as to how we feel about democracy.

I have no skin in the game…

I honestly do not care about Israel or Palestine.

They will keep killing each other regardless of what I think or do.

Do I like it? Not one bit. But I can’t do a damn thing to stop it.

How in the actual hell did the USPS lose $6.5 Billion in the last fiscal year?

I could understand losses in the Millions…

Just saw an article about a girl in NYC that went viral for a TikTok. She was crying about having to apply for a minimum wage job after getting two degrees from college.

I’m sorry, but…. No.

I’m an expert IT guy, and I’ll still wait tables or wash dishes if I have to.

That’s called life.

What remains of the GOP, as we once knew it, is dead and gone.

Even Dems want action over the southern border situation, but the GOP doesn’t want to fix anything because they’re using it as a talking point.

It’s just sad that they’re so beholden to a narcissistic infant.

I scheduled a prostate exam and a vasectomy on the same day.

I’m not sure what my doctor will do first… I think he’s a sadist!

One of my favorite songs, by one of my favorite bands, from the soundtrack of one of my favorite movies.

Violent Femmes - Color Me Once [5-15-94] - YouTube

[Stereo feed] Live in a television studio. A bit dark, but that is how they usually filmed the sets, in those days.

Life is always funny.

If you cannot see the humor in everything around you, then maybe you need to lighten up a bit?

Trust me, it can always get worse.

So make the best of it while you still can.

Getting settled into the new home in Denver. All my family, except for me, are dealing with altitude sickness.

I’ve had an ear infection since November and am still on anti-biotics, so maybe that curse is a blessing?

I also smoke and drink beer like a fish…. Go figure!

For the last 6 years, my family of 4 has lived with ONE bathroom. We made it work, but…

I cannot tell you how amazing it is to now have 2.5 bathrooms.

Happy Winter Solstice everybody!!

Enjoy the longest night of the year, and revel in the darkness it brings.

Within that dark, your love will shine the brightest to those that need it.

Today was my last day at work, because I’m moving to another state. I’ve never been at a job this long… almost 7 years!

The next chapter better be just a little more fun. The grass isn’t greener, just doing what I gotta do.

I read that some teenage boys decided to use AI to create “naked” pictures of female classmates.

I don’t understand the point. It’s not real, but it still harms the girl because boys are dumb enough to think the fantasy is real.

Those boys need to be slapped stupid, and told they ain’t getting it.

A mass shooting in Maine…

The guy targeted ordinary people enjoying a night of bowling.

I can’t wait to hear the “thoughts and prayers” from the jackasses in government.

You know, the people that get 24/7 armed protection that WE pay for?

The mushroom update…

I took 750mg and got nothing. I added a small-ish mushroom onto that, and still nothing.

Mind you, I’m all of 5’10” and 160lbs, so this should’ve been enough.

Am I just immune to psilocybin?

Still chasing that elusive trip…

A couple years ago I got Lasik surgery. At 48 years of age, I finally got perfect vision after 38+ years of dealing with changing prescriptions, and untold out of pocket costs.

Insurance didn’t cover a dime of it. $7000 out of pocket, after years of $100-300 every six months or so of new lenses.
